Reading an Electrical Schematic
Reading an Electrical Schematic
Schematic for Audiophile unit to subwoofer.
Need help with this. On schematic it shows wire going into fuse box.
It is labeld: FUSE
31
20A
would that translate to : Fuse position 31, 20 amp ?
Also, along a wire, the line has a solid circle on it and is labeld: S328 or S208 are these switches?
Thanks. (this is also posted in body electrical)

You got the fuse part right. I dunno if you're using Ford diagrams or not, but if you are using the Ford stuff, sometimes they label fuses "1.14" or "2.20" or "2.2," etc. The first number is the fuse box position - 1 is underhood, 2 is in the passenger's cabin, and in cars so equipped, 3 is in the trunk. The second number is the fuse number itself, fuse 14, 20, 2, etc.
S208 and S328 are splices. Splices are points in the wiring harness where several circuits converge and go into one. Again, using the Ford literature as a reference, if you try to locate a splice, the description might be something like "near T/O to C231," meaning near "tape out" (or tape off, same difference) to connector C231. Find C231, follow the harness from that connector to where another harness branches off in tape, that's the "tape out." Your splice will be somewhere near there.
